Once I stood at the foot of a great high mountain
[Eb] That I wanted so much [Ab] to climb
[Cm] [Ab] And on top of this mountain was a beautiful fountain
[Fm] [Eb] That flows with the waters [Ab] of life
I fell down on my knees at the foot of this mountain
I [Eb] cried, Lord, what must [Ab] I do?
I want to climb this mountain
I want a drink from this mountain
That [Eb] flows so clear [Ab] to my view
Then

I heard a sweet [Eb] voice [Ab] from the top of this mountain
[Eb] Saying, child, put your hand [Ab] in mine
I started climbing slowly
Watched her step at the [Abm] edges
[Eb] And take one step [Ab] at a time
I started climbing upwards
Taking one step at a [Eb] time
The higher I got, [Ab] the harder I climbed
I'm
[Eb]
[Ab]
[Eb]
[Ab] [Bb] [Ab]
[Cm] [Ab] still climbing upwards
And my journey's almost ended
[Eb] I'm nearing the top
And [Ab] you ought to see the view
Oh, the water flows freely
There's enough to make you free
So, [Eb] friend, if you're thirsty
[Ab] Climb this mountain with me
